But from a european view, most people don't know the sport. That doesn't mean that the people here don't spend time and effort, but it is really hard here to get it going.
I guess that is also part of the reason, why the diskussion is going the way it goes! Its said, but as long as they don't put it on TV here people will not understand! From last Olympics they kicked the final out of scedule for some first round elimination in track I think. But it was not for a mayor final.

Unfortunately they intend to replace it with GOLF. Now GOLF is a great sport, but I doubt that the best players in the world would compete if it was included in the Olympics. If the best in the world do not compete then what is the point?
